If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why?
I have a very weak book or movie memory. Disadvantage of it is, I will not recollect anything more than a year which was read or watched. The advantage of it is I can read it multiple times or watch it multiple times I guess 😝.
So within the reach of my memory, the character I would want to be is the psychologist from the most viral netflix series Adolescence. Imagine someone giving you a death stare or poking you knowingly and you just do not have any reaction. That kind of strong personality is what I want to be. How hard the conversation is or how insulting or how provoking the opposite person might be pulling up, but you stick to the game plan and have uno reverse to the same person. Once this psychologist is all alone , she puts out all that anger, sadness or emotions she would have taken in while sitting in front of the person. And that is totally fine, after all we are humans, not robots to be emotionless. The goal is not to give the opposite person the chance to have a victory in the case of the worst situations.
There is a recent movie in Bollywood which I watched in Netflix which is titled “Three of Us”. Usually before I start any movie I try to judge the poster , the actors and the review around it. It was mostly termed as boring but enlightening movie. When there is a term boring in the review, I start to dig deeper. Ironically, a few boring movies are exactly my type. By the way, I’m not a boring person LOL.
The movie starts with a normal housewife played by Shefali Shah. She goes around doing her home duties like looking after the house, managing the kitchen, and other tasks. In some scenes, she is depicted as a woman with short-term memory loss. She forgets to put salt in the prepared food or remember what she was doing. And yes as predicted she has been diagnosed with dementia.
Out of no where she asks her husband that she wants to visit her native where she did her schooling. The story then focuses on her childhood love and trauma. It also examines the life she left behind, which she never thought would revisit her.
I understood why people described the review as boring. It’s a natural movie that shows her learning about her past memories. It also reveals how her life turned out to be. What kept me going in this movie was the concept or theme which is memories !! I am not sure if the writer wanted to say the same thing. What I felt was that memories are weird. They give you all flashbacks when you least expect them.
When some incident happens in our life, we keep it in our hearts. The instant reaction is rage, anger, sadness, or whatever comes to mind. Acceptance is usually not our first response. But as it turns to memories, we realize how silly or romantic it was. You also think about how dumb you were. These thoughts slowly bring tears to your eyes. Life keeps moving on. When we reach our intended destination, looking back at the past reactivates all those memories. Do not dwell on regret. Accept that it is what it is. If you still have the chance to change it, you are the master of it.
This movie took me to a different world and related in so many instances. Its not a genre which would be loved by all, but who can relate would love it !! And what a talented lead cast it was who delivered the writers message so aptly.
A tale of memories from a person who would slowly erase all her life memories because of health condition. Life can be cruel sometimes. We just want a future where you remember everything from the time you wake up to the time you sleep. But life had other plans which will be always a mystery.
This post is all about the great movie 777 Charlie, a story revolving around dharma and his daughter charlie. The most trustworthy animal in the world is a dog. This movie beautifully shows how this trust is earned.
People say owning a pet is nothing less than having and looking after your own kid. The madness, the mess, the care , the innocence , the love that is received are equivalent.
Life focuses on the present. It’s not about the past or the future, but all that is with you today. This movie has various lessons to life for any person of any age. This movie can easily connect you to the main character Ms Charlie. You’ll laugh along with it, dance along with it, and cry along with it.
Simple aagi Ondh love story of ms charlie and dharma. Let that be the beginning of many other love stories. Similar Charlie’s will find their lucky owner or partner.
